When we were at our farm this past weekend, I thought that it would be fun to take some “beginning of the summer” pictures to place on my blog. Not really a good idea at all!
SUN! GREAT!
As soon as I got out the door ready with my camera…
HARDLY ANY SUN AT ALL!
This happened time after time.
When I heard thunder in the distance, I went in the house and had a snack or three or four. So frustrated! As it turned out, a tornado hit about 35 miles away. The clouds certainly don’t look serious in any of the pictures. Texas weather can be very deceiving!
My not so great pictures…with just a trace of sunshine!

I loved the pictures of the farm. The one picture of the split tree made me wonder if you had a tornado there. Did Mike harvest all that hay? I bet that keeps him really busy!

There was a tornado a couple of weeks ago in a small town not too far away. It just barely touched down. We were not at the farm…up here. We think that the tree toppled over during that storm. Mike is trying to complete closing out the business. It sold March 1…can’t recall if I told you! Mike didn’t cut that hay, but we have the equipment. We are just not there enough right now with the business selling (1 1/2 years to sell because of negotiations)…we will move there part-time in a few months. Finally! We leased out a large pasture to the Dutch dairy farmer across the road and he uses one of our barns. Looks like the barn has overflowed!!! So glad to hear from you!!!

I like all of your farm photos. Sorry about the tornado – 35 miles away – hope it’s gone by now!

The tornado hit in Longyiew (where I grew up) and to the south at Lake Cherokee. Not certain where else, Tornados touched down in several small towns not too far away a couple of weeks ago. However, we were at home in the city then. We think that is when the tree blew down…the tree that is in one of the pictures! The tree is on our land, but not near at all to the house.

I noticed the tree! Did the tornado do that?

I like your farm! What do you have on it? I had a day like that recently and was trying to shot a white building with an ugly white overcast sky – urr!

Glad to know that the tornado was a bit away and all are safe. We had rain and thunderstorm last night in El Paso, after a beautiful day. As you said, Texas weather can be very deceiving. The pictures in the post are wonderful. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you! It seems like we have had quite a bit of rain and storms lately! However, I heard on the weather that there is a drought starting in areas to the west, but near Fort Worth!
